[Scpg] Path to Freedom Events: Homebrew Biodiesel Workshop & Urban Homesteading

[Dervaes]

Greetings friends!

We had a wonderful turn out for PTF's third Biodiesel Mixin Mixer!  We thank all those who contributed the great food (what a spread!), drinks and donations to help keep our outreach program going. 

The Hombrew Biodiesel Workshop this coming Sunday (May 23rd) is filled..... but there is a chance of one space being available.  If you like to participate in this hands on workshop, then please contact us ASAP.

In addition, for those who wrote asking when we will be having another video screening, we are still searching for a good deal on a projector.    Also, we've been receiving requests to have another Knit & Crochet Out -- dates are in the works so stay tuned!    ~ Anais ~

URBAN HOMESTEADING
Living a sustainable life in the city
